Davies is to be congratulated for achieving a task of immense proportions...It is a tremendous feat...Davies is to be heartily commended for bringing to the fore the previously unexplored connections across disparate areas of law, if only to expose them to further long overdue analysis by the legal community. -- Timothy Liau Singapore Journal of Legal Studies ...Accessory Liability is a well-written, comprehensive, compelling and thought-provoking. In few than 300 pages, it weaves together a staggering range of subjects...This book deserves to become a significant point of reference for private law scholars and practitioners alike. -- William Day Legal Studies Overall, Accessory Liability is a book to be applauded and highly recommended. Within its pages lies an appraisal and appreciation for this specific area of law that has been sorely lacking for far too long. -- Matthew Carn Trust Law International As Lord Justice Sales notes in his foreword, this book is long overdue; but the wait has certainly been worthwhile. The learning on display here is rich and deep, and Davies' clear structure and lucid style is an exemplar for future private law scholarship. -- Bobby Lindsay The Edinburgh Law Review By seeking to unite discrete and substantial areas of private law, the book's mission is unmistakably ambitious. Yet the author is to be congratulated for meeting the challenge admirably by navigating nimbly across and between subject boundaries, and by squarely confronting a substantial corpus of conflicting and unfavourable authorities. -- Pey-Woan Lee Law Quarterly Review From the foreword by Philip Sales: Judges, practitioners and academic lawyers who read this book will be indebted to Mr Davies for bringing clarity and coherence to what should now be recognised as a major category of civil liability in its own right. Foreword This book deserves to become a significant point of reference for private law scholars and practitioners alike. -- William Day Legal Studies This magnificent work of awesome scholarship and insight should be essential reading for judges, practitioners and advanced level students working in the field of private law. -- Nick McBride King's Law Journal
